As far as preventing use data, you can usually unplug the cell modem, or you can put a faraday bag over it in order to prevent it from connecting.
I'm sure that there is also a software solution for these issues as well. I have a cable and software for my car that lets me enable and disable features.
I wish I had enough money to afford to buy a new car, I probably wouldn't do it because affordable would still mean living paycheck to paycheck. Not sure why I would want a second mortgage on something that depreciates that quickly.

It is infringement if you're sharing the files, but if you make a copy for yourself, then it's considered fair use. See: Sony Corp. of America v. Universal City Studios, Inc.
Internet isn't always available, such as in an airplane or someone might not want to give access to the Internet to their child but wants to give them video or audio on a tablet. They can legally copy the content and watch it later.
There are legal issues with software that is solely designed to bypass drm, but that only applies to the software creator, not the user.
That isn't piracy. It's time shifting, and it's perfectly legal to do it.
Legally, you're allowed to make copies of games that you own and use them in an emulator. You can download mods, play multiplayer across the Internet when servers get shut down and also take advantage of better hardware and get better resolution and framerates, then there are quality of life improvements like savestates.
